Bayern Munich are reportedly trying force one of their first team stars out of the club before the transfer window closes.
Leon Goretzka was surprisingly left out of Bayern's squad for Friday's DFB-Pokal win over Ulm, leading to more speculation over his future.
According to Sky Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg, the club are now increasing the pressure on the German midfielder to find a new club.

Plettenberg, however, does add that the 26-year-old does not want to leave and is keen to fight for his spot under Kompany for this season.
Bayern Sporting director Christoph Freund was quite open about Goretzka's future after Friday night's win.
"Leon has been at Bayern for a very, very long time. He was very successful and is a great player.
"We spoke to him and made it clear to him that there's a lot of competition in his position. We are very well equipped there. Leon knows that. And that's why the situation is like this at the moment, and why he's not in the squad today," he said.
"Not at the moment [there haven't been any offers]. But of course there are some interested parties for Leon Goretzka because he's simply a very, very good player."
